Welcome to Music Together® of Ft. Greene/Clinton Hill, servicing Brooklyn families since 1996!


 
Music Together is an internationally acclaimed early childhood education program designed for children from newborns to 5 years old.

Music Together of Ft. Greene/Clinton Hill is located at 138 South Oxford St. off Hanson Place.

Summer Semester begins July 10, and runs 6 weeks.  The class costs $180 and includes unlimited make ups as well as CDs and songbook.  Registration is available.   4 classes offered:  Monday, 10:15(full)  and 11:15 am with Jessie White, and Saturday, 9:45  and 10:45 am with Rene Collins and Jessie White (taking turns).

Music Together's songs, rhythms, chants, dances, and instrument jams expose your child to a wide variety of musical styles, rhythms, subject matter, and languages.

Instruments and props include:  bells, eggz shakers, drums, balls, scarves, rhythm sticks, and more!

The range of minor, major, aeolian, and dorian melodies, as well as the varying rhythms of Music Together songs help make for some sophisticated listening that will interest both you and your child!

The Music Together program develops your child's basic rhythmic and tonal competence, all while having a great time and fostering the bond between the parent/caregiver and child. Come have fun with us!


  • In Music Together, we celebrate the fact that all children are born with the capacity to be musical! You can nurture the musical growth of your child, regardless of your own musical ability.
  • Our Music Together classes build on your child's natural enthusiasm for music and movement.
  • Come experience a class that fosters fun and creativity, as well as social and musical learning in a pressure-free environment!
  • Music Together is appropriate for all children, infants to five years old. We therefore encourage parents to enroll children with autism/special needs as this is one environment where they can just let go, be free, and express themselves musically. 


ABOUT OUR CLASSES:
We offer weekly 45-minute classes  (6 weeks this summer semester). Together we explore music through songs, rhythmic rhymes, movement and instrument "play-along".

MIXED-AGE CLASSES (0 to 5 years):
Educators have long considered mixed-age groupings to foster beneficial learning skills. Our activities focus on adult/child interaction, where the adult is the musical role model for their child. 
This class is the basis for all Music Together classes, so if you have an infant or a 3-5 year old, don't hesitate to take this class if the ones below aren't offered at a time that is good for you.  All of our teachers have had specialized training in working with each age group; infants, toddlers, and 3-5 year-olds.

BABIES ONLY CLASS (0-8 months):

They may be pre-verbal and pre-mobile, but they’re not pre-musical! A specially designed one-semester introduction to music for our youngest music-makers. Musical activities such as finger play, lap songs, and songs without words are emphasized though we learn songs with words too. A great way to have fun with your new baby, learn how they learn, and meet other new parents.   Class tuition includes 2 CDs, a songbook, and 2 free make ups.  Babies are also welcome in our mixed-age classes.
  
 

 Along with fun music classes, we also offer Musical Birthday Parties and Vocal Lessons, as well as private party performances by singing trio Tres Leches or Singer/Songwriter Rene Collins!    To learn more, click on our news section on this home page on the upper right corner.
